And for the first reprint…

Bring The Pain
Plot Twist/1
Target Marvel Knights character gets +X ATK this attack, where X is its cost. Lose X endurance.

This card was average when it came out. This card is still average now. You have to use this on at least a 4 drop. Otherwise, what the heck was wrong with Flying Kick? Or even a Savage Beatdown? You don’t lose any endurance with these cards either, and on higher cost characters, that cost will definitely put a dent in your endurance. Although, I guess an obvious advantage is being able to play either on offense or defense.

In sealed, a pump is a pump, I guess…
Sealed: 3/5
Constructed: 3/5

Bring the Pain

1 cost Plot Twist

Target Marvel Knights character gets +X ATK this attack, where X is its cost.  Lose X endurance.

This card pretty much rocks.  The only 2 things that are required to play it is a Marvel Knights character, and you to lose a little life.  You can play it on one of your deffending MK characters as a pretty solid suprise counterattack, you can use it as a bigger Savage beatdown later in the game.  I very much like Bring the Pain.

Sealed: 3/5  If you get alot of Marvel Knights characters, this card will be great.  But if you don't get a good amount of them, this card won't be very helpful.

Constructed: 4/5  If you are playing a Marvel Knights deck, you will probably want to run several of this card.  Its great offensive, and a great suprise defense.
jajais4u I'll be honest, something about this card makes me say, "I like this card. I like it a lot." Is it the cool art? Or the fitting effect with the art? Is it the fact that it cost 1? Or that it's a pump? Actually it's all of the above (yes even the art.) When you think about it, it is a pump to attack one up the curve. This pump can help guarantee that your cross attacks will have an effect. It guarantees that the Punisher will punish that higher drop that deserves it. It ensures that four drop Elektra will mean it. A lot. Great pump, even though it costs endurance as well.

Sealed 3.0 (It has to be on the Marvel Knights team.)

Constructed 4.0 (The pump means business on both sides of the field, through your endurance to make them loose their's.

Matt Damon!!!

That’s our intro for today.

Bring The Pain: Plot Twist: Cost 1

Marvel Knights character gets its cost as an attack increase and you lose that much endurance. And it’s only for the attack.

It sucks and here’s why…

Savage Beatdown will give you +5 on turn 4. So that’s better. Armageddon will give you +6 on turn 6. More or less anything will give you +3 by turn 2/3. And none of them make you lose endurance.

It sucks.

Sealed: 2
Constructed: 1
